i love this game. it never gets old

 

[ExquisiteCorpse]

I've got both running. No sound though

Looks fantastic though. Thanks for porting.

 

[M-HT]

Do you mean just no music or no sound at all?

To get music you need to have GUS patches installed or a soundfont (if you configure the game to use bassmidi) or if you are using the DOS game version you can configure the game to use adlib music with opl emulator.
